I agree with Dan. Walk the coach back to the bench, let him say his piece. At the point he stops or asks you a question, tell him, "Coach, I told both players to knock it off and play ball. It's part of officiating. If you don't want me talking to your players, that's fine. I'll just hit him with the foul or the T next time." Turn and walk away. If he chases you, pop him.

But do not allow a coach to come onto the floor to confront you.

Tony:

Please PM to tell me how to do the colorful printing like that. Daryl "The Preacher" Long is always telling me how colorful my language is. LOL
